Artist's description:

This oil painting on canvas is part of my recent project of "street scene paintings", that is paintings inspired by photos I took around the world. My rule is to not modify the scene depicted in the photos: my goal is to show how – unintentional- beauty hides where you don’t expect it to be.In this case I took the photo when walking in l'Havana. I was enchanted by the beauty of this decaying building, typical architecture and colors of the capital city. But it was only looking back at the photo that I noticed the scene: a girl waiting, a boy entering the door, another man on the balcony observing the scene. Each window tells a story in this amazing scenery, full of details and atmosphere.It took a long time and effort to paint all of these details that are the peculiarity of the painting.
